PS Mommy Thread-Newborn to 12 months!

[Sha]

Happy Birthday Sophia!!!

And

to fiery for being such a great mom!

Pg - thanks for letting me know about Mandy.

to sunkist and FL Steph and all the others recently MIA!

Re: breastfeeding - Sorry to hear so many people have struggles witih BF. I actually love nursing and am not looking forward to stopping. Thankfully, I haven''t any major issues, though.

viz - Sorry to hear C cried longer last night, but on the up side - sounds like he slept for a pretty long stretch - from bedtime to 4:30 am, right? That''s not too bad at all. Please don''t feel bad about needing to do CIO. You have to take care of you too! As you said, you''ve had to be on the backburner for so long because of C''s sickness - now that C is healthy it''s time to make sure your basic needs are met as well - and sleep is a BASIC need. You can''t function properly without it, and the longer it goes the more it''s going to affect you. It''s not being selfish at all to make sure you get sleep or take care of you - it''s just basic self-preservation. And even if you don''t want to focus on you/your needs - remember that taking care of you also ensures that you have the energy to take care of everybody else. If you''re feel tired and run-down all the time - how are you going to have the energy to be a good mom to C and a good wife to the DH? We moms give and give all the time - to our children, our husband, our work, our community, etc. We can''t keep on giving and giving if our ''reservoirs'' are empty. We need to take time to fill our tanks (taking care of us), so that we can actually have something to offer to others.

I decided to do CIO last week because I realized that my tiredness was really affecting the most important areas of my life. I barely had energy to interact with Dalila, I was cranky with DH and wasn''t spending any time with him because I was always trying to catch up on my sleep, and I was hardly able to concentrate at work. One afternoon last week I''ve closed my office door and snoozed on the desk for a good two hours. (How productive is that?) I just wasn''t any good to myself or anybody/thing else. Now that I started CIO and am getting more sleep - I feel better and have the energy to be the kind of person/mother/wife/employee I need to be. And Dalila is just as happy in the mornings as she was before (she was a bit standoffish the first morning after, though

). I''m sure if you keep at it things will settle down soon.

[MonkeyPie]

Happy birthday Sophia!!!

 

[ChinaCat]

Quick pop in. I''m on vacation this week and have little computer time.

HAPPIEST HAPPIEST BIRTHDAY WISHES to the lovely Sophia!

And congrats to you, Fiery, for surviving the hardest and best year. You''ve done a great job and Sophia is a joy and a blessing and we are lucky to have her. And you.

I have so enjoyed going through this journey with you, and watching Miss Sophia grow up.

Hi to everyone else! I will be back next Tuesday and can''t wait to catch up and hear how everyone''s doing.

xoxo,
Chinacat

 

[Sabine]

Quick pop in from me...
First, Happy Birthday to lovely Sophia!!!!

Second, don''t ever move with an 11 month old. It''s not fun. It''s actually pretty hard. In fact, I''d say it''s nearly impossible. Did I mention, don''t ever try to move with an 11 month old? Oh, I did, must be the exhaustion talking.

I honestly would not have survived if my inlaws hadn''t come for dh''s intern year graduation ceremony. They watched Jacks the whole time I had to organize all our junk, the packers packed, and the next day when the loaders loaded, and finally while I cleaned like a madwoman. They took him out to eat, on walks, and let me get all the craziness taken care of. He got a bump on his head and fell off the couch on his watch, but honestly, these days, he''s such a daredevil that that''s doing well for him. A big downside was that dh was almost no help whatsoever and I had to do almost all the planning, organizing, and stressing myself, and we had a huge blowout over it.

We had to get a later start than we wanted today because of a change in schedule, but we still made almost 5 hours. Jacks did ok in the car, only a little screaming, mostly when he throws toys and then realizes he wants them back and I can''t reach them and am not willing to stop to get it for him, but he''s not sleeping well in the car at all. We have about 10 more hours to cover, and we have 3 days to do it, but we''ll probably only take 2 and stay in the same hotel the last night until we can get the keys to the new house. Oh, and the wonderful news is due to the change in schedule, our stuff will be arriving in Pensacola on the 6th instead of the 15th!!!!

We won''t have any inlaws to help with the unpacking though...don''t know how that''s going to go.

Hope everyone is doing well!

ETA, Lysser, just saw your post about dog''s bowls. Jacks is OBSESSED with water! He is seriously a fish. So of course he loves the dog''s water. Every day, the first time he goes to it, I say "uh uh uh, not for Jackson" and he usually stops after dunking his hand in once and looks at me and moves on. Then he comes back to it every 2 seconds, so after the first time, I say a stern NO and move the bowl up onto a counter (or dresser for her bowl in the bedroom). I then move it back down for her throughout the day, and move it back up as Jacks rediscovers it. I can''t think of anything better to do. Her food is in her crate, and I shut the door to it when she''s not in the crate. She usually eats when I''m feeding Jacks so he''s in the high chair.

 

[fieryred33143]

Thank you so much ladies for all of the birthday wishes. I feel really lucky to be part of this community. Who knew that my google search on less than 1 carat rings would lead me to such wonderful friends

.

We''ve had a long day and Sophia is passed out. Since my mom is here, I invited Rich''s parents over and we had dinner and cake. Sophia had no interest in it which surprised me. She usually loves sweets stuff but I think the frosting was too much for her. She took one lick of the frosting and one bite of the cake and that was enough. But it didn''t stop her from getting it all over

I''ll do a proper post later where I actually respond to everyone

but here are some pics of my one year old! OMG

 

[fieryred33143]

She cried when we sang happy birthday which made me crack up. I was a cry baby when I was younger too and used to cry when everyone would sing happy birthday lol. She also wasn''t thrilled about the whole cake thing.

 

[vizsla]

OMG! I could eat that picture of Sophia up! She''s so stinkin'' cute!
Congrats again mamma! What an amazing year!

AFM: 15 mins of crying tonight when I put him down. He just seems so upset but I have my big girl pants on.
Have I mentioned that I loathe being a working mom. Part time working mom I could get behind, full time working mom is so hard. So. Hard.

 

[Burk]

Okay, kids in bed and I''m sick of rearranging furniture so I''m going to try and catch up a bit.....

Mara~Hoping J and K both get the self-bink soon!

Been meaning to tell you I tried the Baby''s Only formula again and it was another puking rally. So weird. I then threw the can away! I''m depressed because it seemed like such a great option (and WAY cheaper then what he''s on) because of the no corn but something in it must not agree with K.

lysser~Thanks! That is way too funny about the TP...um and weird!

viz~C is making HUGE strides. Before you know it this CIO stuff will be in the past and you''ll all be sleeping better!! A few weeks ago K had that virus and he was waking every 1-2 hours and I just kept thinking that''s what you had been doing for MONTHS...and if I haven''t mentioned it before I have no idea how you did it! We''re sleep training now too because he''s feeling better and we all need sleep. Ironically K''s doing much the same thing as C as far as waking once and crying for a bit and then going back down. Anyway, all this babble to say stick with it! Oh, and also, re: working PT. I feel ya. When I went back to work after I had T (only was for 5 weeks before summer break-I''m a teacher) it was the longest 5 weeks ever and that''s when I decided I needed to be PT and have never looked back. So hard.

Sha~Glad that D is doing well with CIO...I had to laugh about your nap in your office!

China~Hope you''re having a great vacation!

Fiery~Miss Sophia is absolutely adorable!!! Happy 1st birthday!!

Sabine~Been there. I planned, packed and organized our move by myself. DH was out of town the 3 weeks leading up to it so it was all on me-with an 8 week old and a 2 year-old. So not fun. Glad you made it out alive!

Alright, that''s all I got right now. We finally finished our basement. New furniture was delivered today so I need to get things in order...I''ve already rearranged the furniture like a thousand times and still am not sure if I like it!

K''s bottom two teeth are right there and he''s been a little fussy because of it. I can''t believe they might actually pop through already but I guess we''ll see. I''m going to look for a pic for BFP because I doubt I''ll have time tomorrow to post....

 

[Burk]

Pic of crazy roller boy....I can''t keep him on the blankets I lay down because the kid wiggles and rolls like crazy. Not so good since he''s a spit up king.

 

[Burk]

And this one is of him watching TV. We almost never have the TV on but I had let T watch a show while I was making dinner and I think K watched more than she did!

 

[Puppmom]

Fiery, I just wanted to pop in to say that Sophia is seriously one of the most beautiful children I have ever seen!

 

[Mara]

fiery that first pic of sophia is adorable!!! she''s sooo cute.

burk awww i love K''s crazy blue eyes!! what a doll. and booo on BO not working for you!! at first i think J had a little adjusting to do to it because it uses brown rice vs corn but now he loves it and we don''t have any issues with it. also J had a bit of reflux too in general and sometimes he just has crazy spitty days (usually mucousy which we attribute to allergies) and then the next day he''s fine. so weird!

viz how did the rest of last nite go? and umm 15 min is GREAT. hang in there momma. i know the big girl pants can cause uncomfortable chafing sometimes hehe.

what are everyone''s plans for 4th? almost every year G plays in this 4th of july symphony concert at a local park near us and we get a group together and BBQ afterwards. so we are doing that again, though this time having the BBQ catered by a local bbq place since i don''t want to deal with cooking anything now that J is here...just wrangling him for 2-3 hours out at a park and then having him come home to guests will be tiring enough. i hope he naps. and i got him a little 4th of july romper from Childrens Place that is 12mo and umm looks like it will just fit him for a week after i wash it. jeez.

oh and i was thinking back to last year on 4th of july where i was only about 8 weeks preggo and remember thinking THEN how diff 4th of july this year would be. oh yep.

so today is friday right? my days are all wonky. i had to post this pic...i don''t think i posted it on the other site either since i wanted to save it for BPF, but it''s friggin awesome. my sis took it and i call it J in the Hood. he''s ready to be a member of the Beastie Boys. hehee. BEST PIC EVER.

and i''m so excited to be WFH today and have monday off. YAY. i am going to try to return a bunch of too small Carters clothes and get bigger sizes but not sure if they will let me as it was all gifts...so fiingers crossed. happy friday all.

 

[cdt1101]

Mara - that pic is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo cute!! I love a baby in shades

SO adorable!!

 

[mtjoya]

Fiery-Happy Birthday Sophia! Such a cutie! Where did you make her outfit, fiery?

Burk-What a cutie! How does K like that play thingy?

Mara-What a freakin cutie! I love the shades! J has heart minnie mouse ones! hehe! I was thinking the same thing last year 4th of July! Crazy huh?! LOL....

Here is Diva J hanging out in her bumbo!

 

[mtjoya]

eww just noticed J''s pic. She was wearing those Trumpette socks and it left over black lint on her toes! hehe!

 

[MonkeyPie]

Hahaha mjtoya I love the lint in her toes!

Today is DH''s birthday and he has been sleeping for the whole day

Oh well, we aren''t celebrating until next weekend anyway. He''s a super old 31, or at least in his eyes!

Omg, fiery, Sophia is SO STINKIN'' CUTE! I love that first picture of her, she looks so big! And LOL about her crying during happy birthday. You just wait, in a few years she is going to demand the song, haha.

Yay viz, only 15 minutes! Good job!

Burk, he is SO big, I can''t believe how big he is. I love those little chubby legs! And Micah "watches" tv, too, especially cartoons

Mara, I love the sunglasses! I have one for BPF of Micah in sunglasses, too. Haha, great minds think alike! I love sunglasses on babies, so cute. And Micah squints like mad in the sun so I think he will love them when he realizes what they do. Right now he only tolerates them for a minute or two.

Here is Micah, stylin'' and proflin''. Or something. He looks hilarious!

 

[meresal]

Here is a pic from our trip to California this past week. We had an awesome time, and C was able to spend a whole week with his cousin who is only two days older than him. So cute!

He didn't get many naps during the daytime since we were going literally nonstop... so he slept REALLY well at night. Here are the before and after pics of the very fisrt time he only woke up once during the night!

Finally in bed...

ETA: Love all of your baby pics! Cuteness!

 

[meresal]

and after waking up the next morning...

 

[anchor31]

Love everyone''s pics!

DH has been off from work since Thursday last week so I haven''t been spending a lot of time online, but I have a question Re: solid quantities... Tonight I made him 2 tbsp of oat cereal and 1oz of carrots and he ate everything I could get it in his mouth fast enough... And he wanted more, and ended up eating another 2 tbsp of oatmeal and another 1oz of carrots (finally dozing off in his chair). After changing his diaper and putting him in his pj''s, I checked to see if he wanted formula and he downed 5½oz. My question is, should I have given him more formula instead of more cereal and veggies? He had 28oz of formula in total today, and he usually takes 32-36oz.

 

[anchor31]

As for my BPF contribution... a morning nap with daddy!

 

[fieryred33143]

Sabine-hugs during the move! Are you in Pensacola yet? We’ll have to meet up at Disney at some point

Viz-I am loving Charlie. Seriously. The guy gets better and then sleeps like a champ. How awesome is that?! And even if he does have some set backs here and there, you KNOW that he can do it. Your DH knows he can do it. And C knows he can do it. No turning back now!! Way to go familia Viz

Burk-that picture is so cute!! I adore his eyes.

Thank you so much puppmom! Can’t wait to meet your LO!

Mara-J looks hilarious in that pic! He’s so cute and I love all of his outfits. Boy clothes are the best!

MTJ-Thank you! I got her outfit on Etsy of course. There are a bunch of sellers that will do custom onesies. The skirt is from Target! I think they still have a bunch on sale. Love J on her bumbo! And LOL at the feet.

That reminds me-is my baby the only one with smelly feet? I don’t understand why her feet smell. They aren’t stinky like adult feet would be but they just seem way too smelly for a baby that hardly ever wears socks, shoes, and does not walk.

MP-that pic of Micah made me LOL! Love it.

Mere-I was wondering about you. Glad you had a great trip. C is such a smiley baby and he’s so cute!

Anchor-normally I would say that he shouldn’t be dropping formula since his main source of nutrition at his age should be the formula, BUT, if he was normally taking 32-36oz, I think it’s normal that he would drop a bottle. I believe the recommended intake is 24-30oz so 28oz is plenty for the day. Love the Jacob and dad pic!

OMG, Fiery, your little Sophia is so very cute and grown up! Happy Birthday to her and what a beautiful princess you have raised!

 

[drk]

What cuties!
Fiery - what a cutie pie you''ve got! Can''t believe she''s one.
Viz - I agree, full time is tough. I''m going to plan to stay full time for now, but could see it changing in the future if I don''t feel like I''ve got enough time with K. It is nice to exercise my brain at work though.

I went to the lactation consultant one last time today. Apparently (as I suspected), it''s too late to do any fixing of the latch now. She got less than 1oz from me when feeding, because she barely took the second side, was just too distractable. And I cried, because she had her first oz of formula while we were there. I don''t know why I''ve been so against it, when I see nothing wrong with others giving their babies formula, but it feels like such a failure on my part, you know? The freezer stash will be gone by the end of the weekend, so we''re going to go buy some formula tomorrow. For now, I''m just relieved that she took straight formula, as I''ve heard it tastes like crap. I have a feeling this will be the beginning of the end, since I won''t feel there''s so much to fight for now.

Mara - I have no idea what''s better when mixing formula/BM. The lactation consultant today told me to first give her the BM to "coat" her stomach with it, then give the formula. Or to mix 50/50 if she wouldn''t take straight formula. I don''t know that I believe coating the stomach will make much difference. I think I''ll just give the EBM first, then give her however much formula she wants to take to fill her up after that.

 

[anchor31]

drk - I'm so sorry to hear that all your hard work has come to this. BFing is so hard and so many of us here have had issues with it and had to switch to formula... It's hard. I don't know if your LO was born when I had my own BFing issues, but J was so hungry that he would get pissed off and refuse the boob because letdown wouldn't happen fast enough and I wouldn't have enough milk to fill him up. The first time we had to give him formula, I cried too. Ifelt like such a failure, and I felt like him refusing the boob as a rejection... I wanted to do the 6 months EBF and all that, but he was hungry, and I had to feed him something... We've been giving him Similac Advance. The stuff isn't cheap, but you can register on the Similac website and they send you samples and coupons. Believe it or not, we also had a water filtration system installed in our house. Anything for our LOs, right?

 

[gingerB]

viz - woohoo! gooooooo c!

mara - glad the bbq went well. we're still too intimidated to try hosting just yet. hubbs and i were just talking today about how all of a sudden there is so much baby stuff going on in our lives and all around us. we attributed it to 1) we now have one and are more aware. and 2) it's prob just our age group and the natural progression of things. and yeah..the shift to early bedtimes has def taken place in our household!

mere - found the pjs at target and scooped them up. too cute. i actually have been buying a tone of the footed pjs at target. they've got so many cute one and really good prices.

AFM - took A to the pool for the first time on july 4th. he was a bit apprehensive at first, until he figured out it was like a big ole bathtub and he totally relaxed and started splashing and chatting up a storm. so fricking cute. i was really worried cuz in the process of splashing he seemed to have swallowed quite a bit of water, but so far he's been fine. silly over anxious mommy []

i made butternut squash for A today and it was a huge hit. HUGE. i couldn't shovel it in fast enough. he actually grabbed my hand that was holding the bowl to keep it near him and was opening his mouth before i offered the spoon. i roasted it, added a teeny tiny splash bit of BM and mashed it with a fork with a touch of pumpkin pie spice. [] he actually didn't seem like it until i added the spices, then couldn't get enough. he also seems to like the thicker chunkier consistency versus when i add too much BM and its the smoother thinner puree. the tongue thrusting is completely gone and he is eating like a champ. so far a pretty neat eater, keeps most of it inside []

good thing he liked it because one butternut squash makes a whole lotta mash. hubbs and i will prob be eating some for a little while too []

speaking of -- i've only been making a litle bit at a time, esp since we're just playing around and not really doing solids with any consistency (pretty much only when i get home early and have time -- which is usally only on the weekends). but htinking forward, any recs on freezing equipment? are the fancy babyfood trays worth it or any ice trya with a lid will do? any brand recs?

thinking of trying banana next for a change of pace (first sweet fruit-- only other fruit we've done is avocado). then acorn squash since the butternut and sweet potatoes were a hit.

 

[vespergirl]

Hi everyone! I hope that you're all well - I've been absent from PS while getting into a rhythm with 10 week old baby Connor, while trying to take care of 3 year old Andrew at the same time. I'm finally getting my head above water, so hopefully I'll have more time to post, but I fell bad because I haven't been able to keep up with all of you. I hope to stay current from now on, but unfortunately, baby Connor isn't much of a napper, and I usually used to post when Andrew was napping.

Anyway, Connor is a great sleeper at night, thank goodness. He either totally sleeps through the night, or wakes up once for a bottle, but then he goes right back to sleep. I can't believe it, but it seems taht I was blessed with two great sleepers.

He is also a great eater, though the BFing wasn't going well in the beginning because of his toungue-tie, and by the time that was fixed, was supply was already decreasing. I have tried everything to increase my supply, but my endocrinologist thinks that because of my Hashimoto's & PCOS, it's unlikely to ever be very good, regardless of what I do. I had low supply with Andrew and he was weaned at 3 months, so I think that we may be going down that road with Connor as well, but I would like to try to make it a few more weeks to at least get to 3 months. We are already supplementing with formula because I am only pumping 6 ounces per day, and he cries every time he's done nursing, so I have to give him formula after every time he gets off the breast - there is just not enough milk for him.

Connor is huge though - he just had his two month checkup, and he's gained 3 pounds and grown 3 and a half inches since he was born - he's a 2 month old in 6 month clothes!

Anyway, he's cranking now (he just hates napping) so I better go, but I hope all is well, and I promise I'm going to try to keep up with you guys now that we're settling in - hope everyone is doing OK!

 

[drk]

Vesper - so sorry to see you're dealing with supply issues as well. Good for you for providing as much BM as you have been. It's so much harder to continue BF when you're fighting for it, pumping and supplementing, and not seeing yourself get all that much out when you pump. Sorry for the crummy naps. I have to say K used to only nap when I was holding her, but it got much much better right around the 3 month mark. She'll now nap 45-80min in her crib, and only gets up once at night (when I wake her) to feed.

Anchor - thanks for the encouragement. I don't think I was following this thread when you were struggling. It's not fair that BF is so hard for some of us! I also have a crummy letdown and slow flow that K isn't happy with. Sometimes she's patient at the breast, other times not so much.

Ginger - the squash sounds fantastic. Must try some soon with K. How old is A now? I'm wondering how long it will be before K loses the tongue thrust reflex. If she'd been born on time, she would have been 4 months yesterday.

We had a big power outage yesterday. I didn't care much about the other stuff in the fridge, but I got really worried about what I was going to do with the tiny frozen supply of EBM and my refrigerated bottles of milk for while I'm at work. Luckily the power came back on after 2.5 hours, so it was ok. Whew. I was planning to phone the hospital I work at and see if they had electricity and drive my supplies up there to put in the freezer and fridge.

 

[Mara]

ginger...re: foods. i have a friend who has a baby 2 months older and she's like martha stewart so i just took her food recommends and did what she said with what to buy. we got the baby cubes (2oz, don't bother with 1oz as baby doesn't eat 1oz for longer than like a week or two!) and also a freezer tray from green sprouts. for the freezer tray stuff, lot sof people do diff things. you can use a mini muffin pan, or an ice cube tray. i got the green sprouts one because it is BPA free, does anyone know anything about stuff leaching from metals into the food? i'm not sure if that is a worry or just my own thing but i have like 4 mini muffin pans i could totally use otherwise. if not i will get another green sprouts tray because i filled one ysterday making zucchini and peaches and wanted to make more sweet potatoes (have 2 left) but didnt have room and it took all day for the one tray to freeze.

then after you are done freezing ,you pop out the cubes and put them into freezer ziplocks. one for each food, and store them in the freezer. that way they don't have to stay in the freezer tray and you can use it for more stuff. make sure to label food with dates. i use the baby cubes for fresh stuff mostly, or i take 2 cubes from the freezer and put them into the cube and put it in the fridge, it takes 12 hours to defrost in fridge, or just like 1-2 hours at room temp. anyway this is how i have been doing it so far and it's easy...making 2 foods per week takes me about 1 hour total and i can do other things while the food is cooking (baking or steaming). i baked the peaches. one baby cube set and one green sprouts total was like $15, not bad.

this wkd i made zucchini and peaches. the zucchini was from our neighbors yard and the peaches were organic from WF. also for anyone making your own, apples, peaches, nectarines, cherries, and other 'soft skin' fruits should be purchased organic if you are worried at all about pesticides. a lot of the harder skin items can be regular product.

i have been mixing sweet potoates with peas to get him to like the peas, lol...it seems to work ok, last nite before his bottle he consumed 2oz of the mix. also apparently zucchini is a good 'mix' item as it has a very mild flavor.

i haven't added anything extra yet (spices) since i want him to get used to each food individually before mixing it with anything, aka i don't want him never to want to eat something solo but need it mixed up. maybe that won't be the case anyway but just in case!!! so far he is really good natured about eating everything even if he LOVES certain foods over others.

oh and viz...YAY for 3 nights in a row, hope C continues.

welcome vesper!!! i feel you on lower supply, hang in there.

drk... i asked before my old post got eaten how you were doing, still pumping and were you supplementing yet? hope you are feeling ok. boo on the power outage. it will be nice to not stress over anyone opening the freezer after i finish bf'ing.

i can't really 'see' all the long posts in PS2...hopefully they fix that issue soon. it looks like the screen only has a min area and then i can't see anything below that and there is no scroll bar. maybe i'll try on FF.

so PS2 ate my old posts from the wkd but J seems to be sleeping thru the night again with no wakes, well he's done it 3x in a row so hopefully it's a new habit. he is still rolling though but seems to be either not waking up worrying about it or just not waking up as much, not sure which. but he wakes up around 5-7am and then i will give him his blanket and his paci and he sleeps 1-2 more hours...i think he gets cold. he's like me in that he wants to be really warm. and he's mostly sleeping on his stomach still.

AFM...boobs are still producing less. last nite i got 1.5oz even though last week i was getting 2oz. i am sure it will continue depleting but at this point it's only 20 min 2x a day so i figure eke out the last few ounces as long as i can. it's sad on one hand and on the other i am slowly getting really excited to be done.
